I was expecting this. Instead, I got a hole in the ground.

Yes, Earth is what I use too. But I am about out of that hobby because of the spyware Google Earth implants in my machine as part of their client/app.

[Political Junkie Too]

They have a web-based browser version, too.

Yes, unfortunately it won’t let me use it without also downloading their spy garbage. If I can’t use or read a site and still have my security tools block Google I move on and can live without it. Here is why, and it is not just Youtube, It is all sites that use Google third party services.

What spyware have you found?

I use GE a lot

[Psalm 73]

"...is in fact more in agreement with a crater floor clast-poor melt rock, quite similar to the Mistastin and Janisjarvi cases..."

Wow- that's the first thing that came to my mind.

[Openurmind]

The desktop Google client/app you install updates everything you do to Google. It is literally a spy you installed into your box. Even when you are not using GE go watch your processes in your system monitor. You can watch it send stuff to Google as fast as it can as you use it. There should be absolutely nothing going to Google if you are not using the GE app and hooking to their GE server. So they are sending everything you do in real time to a second server.

I found this years ago with GE. And it was rough on me, I am addicted to it... lol

It looks like Little Cultus Lake, Oregon to me. A volcanic formation.

[Openurmind]

Well they say they analyzed the geology...

[Chad_the_Impaler]

An obvious one:
51°23′50″N
68°41′30″W

[Does so]

The feature “surrounds the lake”?

...When it IS the lake!

[NorthMountain]

That circular lake certainly does suggest an impact feature.

[Chad_the_Impaler]

I found it by looking at the map of the area, just like this guy. But I also found it is well-known to have been formed by an asteroid impact 214 million years ago, according to Wikipedia.

[NorthMountain]

See also the location in Post #7, if you haven’t already.

[Chad_the_Impaler]

A meteorite impact 1.4 million years ago, again according to Wikipedia.
